How Do I get More?
It is written in Exodus chapter 16: “In the evening, you will have meat to eat, and in the morning, you will be filled with bread.” …“That evening, vast numbers of quail arrived and covered the camp. The next morning, the desert all around the camp was wet with dew. When the dew disappeared, later in the morning, thin flakes white like frost covered the ground. What is it, they asked? It is the food the Lord has given you. Each household should gather as much as it needs. Do not keep any of it overnight“… “So the people of Israel ate manna for forty years until they arrived in the land of Canaan; where there were crops to eat.” It is written in Matthew chapter 6: “So don’t worry about everyday life: food, drink, or clothes. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring it’s own worries, today’s trouble is enough for today. And don’t store up treasures here on earth, store my treasures in heaven. Wherever my treasure is, there my heart and thoughts will also be.”
In 2012, the Holy Spirit told me to go, tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. So I began to call friends from all over the country and told them I was coming to their city soon. To which they replied; “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you.” On June 19th, I received a call from the F.P.C. and they told me to go to the Boys and Girls Club on Saturday, June 23rd because there was a gift there waiting for me. So I went that Saturday morning and they handed me a gift card for 500.00. On June 30th, I performed my farewell to Las Vegas Concert. During this concert, I received a love offering of $400.00, which paid for me to go and tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. I only completed half the tour and was forced to postpone the remainder of the tour until Christmas. I returned to Las Vegas on August 21st, 2012. By November 2nd, my house sold for $60.000.00. By the time all the unpaid bills had been paid, I was left with $37,000.00. On my 50th birthday, November 2nd, I performed a happy birthday to me concert and was given $400.00. On December 19th, I was scheduled to go to New Jersey, California, and Washington, to finish my tour. On December 17th, I received a call from the First Presbyterian Church Office and they asked me to come to the office the next day. So I did. When I arrived, they handed me a gift card and said: “We heard you were going on tour again so this is a little something for the trip, have a Merry Christmas!” The gift card was loaded with $500.00, so I left for New Jersey the next day and once again,
my entire trip to tell the world about his unforgettable deeds was completely paid for! There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven. In the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The new testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” Now is the time, in the kingdom the Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need. Now, in the kingdom, I delight in doing everything the Lord wants… I am like a tree planted along the river bank, bearing fruit each season without fail. My leaves never wither and in all I do I prosper.
Now, in the kingdom, every good thing I have comes from you, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. It is not important to know how it is coming, but it is very important to know it is coming! Now, in the kingdom, I trust in your unfailing love: For instruction, what do you want me to do today? For direction for my future. What is my field of service for you? What is my destiny? The instruction that I obey today paves the way for the path I am to walk on later. For provision to accomplish every instruction I am given. For protection every day of my life.
In the kingdom, to those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given, and they will have an abundance of knowledge. In the kingdom, anyone who listens to my teachings and obeys me is wise. In the kingdom, wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. When I obeyed his instruction, and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did. For truly, in the kingdom, God is dependable!!!
